2 - a flat japanese knot bag
3 - a book cover
4 - the grand prize tata-da-dan-ta-da-dan... a shirt, a japanese knot bag, and a book cover

... all made by me ;-) and in the tradition of the creative swap, i promise to pack some yummy japanese goodies in there as well. weird kitkats anyone? ;-)

how to join?

hm, last year i simply asked for comments on the site, but this year, i decided to make it a bit of challenge ;-) some of you may know that i'm an architect and that i'm very interested in anything spatial. so to join this contest, all you have to do is write a short entry about your favorite space and why you like it. it can be anything --- a part of your home, a small stopover on your way to work, your favorite toilet, your worktable, or a place that relaxes you. i'm interested in finding out what kind of spaces and / or places you have an affinity with ;-)

so you all have until 12 midnight of the 22nd to write an entry (with or without pictures) about your favorite space or place. leave me a comment on this post with a link to your entry. winners will be drawn via randomizer ;-)

sali na!

When I resigned from my first job, I realized that apart from missing the people I worked with, I missed our floor's restroom. It's just so quiet, clean, relaxing and the bench is just the perfect place to talk and catch up with my then colleagues. We also used the excuse of going to the restroom if we're too stressed with work. It's like you're in a time capsule and you don't know what's going on outside. It's also a place to sew my pants once I accidentally had it ripped, or when my friend had a breakdown or simply go there just to make chismis on one of our officemates. We even had memorable pictures taken in that place. I just miss it so much that I want to have something like that if I get my own place, black marble, white fixtures and a very comfortable bench.
